Good for him. Hope he does well there.

Like many of this year's free agent signings, he migrated to a former coach.

New Carolina HC Matt Rhule was Walker's college coach at Temple.

List of remaining free agents that I would like to see the Colts take a stab at:

DE Jadeveon Clowney

DT Mike Daniels
DT Shelby Harris
DT Damon Harrison
DT Timmy Jernigan
DT Derek Wolfe

WR Robby Anderson
WR Breshad Perriman
WR Devin Funchess
WR Rashard Higgins

TE Tyler Eifert

CB Ronald Darby

As you can see, I really want another NT/DT in the fold to go with Buckner, Autry and Stewart and a veteran WR to work in the mix with T.Y., Campbell, Pascal, Fountain and 1 or 2 rookie draft picks.

Clowney, Eifert and Darby are positions that I think we need more quality bodies at but I am not sure any of them are our thing.

Clowney will probably be too expensive (he is a talent) and I am not sure Eifert or Darby would be better than a 2nd/3rd/4th round rookie at the position.

Not much else out there, IMO.

I would like to have Robby Anderson, but the rumor is that he wants TY Hilton money or more. I'm not sure that would sit well with Hilton or the locker room, based on Anderson's production.

Ballard probably wouldn't go there.

Robby Anderson to the Panthers per Rapoport and Mehta. I think several more WR's will be signing in the next few days.

Former #Jets WR Robby Anderson has a deal with the #Panthers, as MMehtaNYDN said. He get a 2-year deal worth $20M with $12M in year 1. A nice landing spot.

FWIW - Seattle reportedly has offered Clowney a multi-year deal at $18.5MM per year.

From my story https://thenewstribune.com/sports/nf...241375251.html last night.

Nothing’s changed for #Seahawks and Jadeveon Clowney. Apparently $18.5M/yr in a multiyear from SEA. $3-5M less per year in a 1-year deal.

But they also just traded for Quenton Dunbar, who purportedly wants $10M+ a year, and according to Overthecap.com SEA only had $18.3 in cap space BEFORE the trade.

Dunbar is still under contract for this year. Seattle can ink an extension with him with the bigger money starting next year. Or they could tell him to wait. The local beat writers had also mentioned the possibility of cutting a few players, too, to create additional cap space.

Yeah, I suppose there could be ways around it with creative cap management, restructuring,etc. I just figured that Washington wouldn’t have traded him so cheaply if they thought he was willing to play for his scheduled $3.25M salary. Or perhaps Rivera is trying to create a new culture and wants to clear the locker room of malcontents.
